  • ghiamia73 melania’s motherboard (@ghiamia73) reported from Oakland, California

  • SFnatives San Francisco Native (@SFnatives) reported from San Francisco, California

    @stephendelong78 @CALWDA @JulieSuCA @CA_EDD #CAEDD Is a complete disaster. INCOMPETENCE. It’s like as if someone who has dial-up Internet, an AOL email account and thinks ctrl+alt+delete is tech support is running the IT programming Dept. @CA_EDD The “pending” glitches and lack of cust. service needs to end ! PUA, PEUC>PAY

  • ZachRoth Zach Roth | zachroth.eth (@ZachRoth) reported from San Francisco, California

    I straight called AOL tech support at one point to ask them how to open a “dot ZIP” file.

  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL I feel bad for her. This guy wanted to cheat on his wife [ she didn't know he was married ] Then wanted to get rid of the problem when he was to dumb to use protection. 😐

  • mrjasonroy Jason Roy (@mrjasonroy) reported from San Francisco, California

    @jpawgmafia Downloading the STATE logos off of AOL online and printing them up and putting them in my room. That aged the **** out of me.

  • sunnyfbaby el sole, himself. (@sunnyfbaby) reported from Oakland, California

    @solesupremacy AOL -> chats -> Japan -> bay area a-z-ns lol. Damn im that old

  • SideEyePrincess Side-EyePrincess 😒👸🏾 (@SideEyePrincess) reported from San Bruno, California

    @AshleyGWinter Same. Never had MySpace or AOL.

  • yasSF Yasmine Scallan (@yasSF) reported from San Francisco, California

    AOL! TERRIBLE! It was to mean “America On Line”! Could not keep a tech advisor complete a help request on line to resolve problems with my email. Jess said “hello, what seems to be the problem” then disappeared and I had to pay to get him on line to start! VERIZON wake up please!

  • cw4emeryville Courtney Welch (@cw4emeryville) reported from Emeryville, California

    I never learned to type from Mavis Beacon programs, it was using AOL instant messenger everyday after school for an hour.

  • stevenredd stevenredd (@stevenredd) reported from San Francisco, California

    @Ky71Matt @notcapnamerica Hello! Of course I still have an AOL address! How am I supposed to sign up for porn sites I’m never going back to again?!?!

  • greggferndale greggferndale (@greggferndale) reported from San Francisco, California

    @DevinCow 1. Never had AOL.

  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL Poor lady she tried to help. Maybe if she would have helped the student pay they would have left her alone. Very sad.🙁

  • jjsignal JJSignal™ (@jjsignal) reported from El Cerrito, California

    @The_Katbot It was also the reason I managed to push my parents off of AOL and move on to a better ISP, since AOL required its launcher to be open to stay online. I think it was a common complaint. Before that, I would use Net Zero accounts until I was flagged as a "heavy user" good times.

  • chrismessina Chris Messina (chrismessina@mastodon.xyz) (@chrismessina) reported from Oakland, California

    @seeminglee @xoxogossipgita Good point. Unfortunately Flickr is one of those internet brands that can probably never be sufficiently evolved without angering a core, vocal userbase, like still existing AOL customers.

  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL That's really sad. poor girl.🙁

  • w00t John Vantine (@w00t) reported from Oakland, California

    @mygiantrobot DMX - Ruff Ryders Anthem. Pre-Napster, there were private chat rooms on AOL where people would “serve” MP3s. So painfully slow on a 14.4 kbit/s dial-up connection. Simpler times!

  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL I agree. The problem is a lot of people either can't afford or have no room to store clothes. Very sad.😐

  • espi espi (@espi) reported from San Francisco, California

    I tried to customize my Slack color scheme and it’s nothing short of appalling. Come to think of it, I never really was good at AOL color profiles, either.

  • davey5grains David cinquegrana (@davey5grains) reported

    @iheartguitar @ITYSL ****. *AOL Blast

  • GoodHart1989 Good Hart Girl (@GoodHart1989) reported

    @EmranRashid3 I was reading an article on aol (my email service--I know, I know...) about climate change, warning that we were beyond the brink, and the comments were all MAGA/Fox watchers/climate deniers. It was unbelievable. Whatever we do, it will be too late now.

  • jedeline Jon DeLine ⚛️ 🦇🔊₿ (@jedeline) reported

    @sunnya97 Could both be right on different time frames? What time frame are we in? AOL was late 90’s king (user growth gave premium to potential network effects) b4 better apps created user moats. Do large cloud services make AMZN/GOOG L1’s as well? Do great apps drive their own L1 value?

  • BionicLatino M1573R_CHR15.EXE (@BionicLatino) reported

    @TimTheEnchantar Jesus I’m old, but back in my young angry atheist days, I’d hang out in Beliefs Atheist AOL chat room and always wondered why the Wiccans and Pagans were given a free pass.

    @TimTheEnchantar Jesus I’m old, but back in my young angry atheist days, I’d hang out in Beliefs Atheist AOL chat room and always wondered why the Wiccans and Lagans were given a free pass.

  • AntWadley325 AntMoon325 👨🏿🇺🇲💵🖥️🥋🏀🎮🗡️ (@AntWadley325) reported

    @_denisesalcedo I remember a little trick I used to do with the service. On the discs they either gave you a certain amount of hours, days, or a full month. Once you knew your expiration date, you just called the number and try to cancel the service before you were charged. Most of the AOL...

  • TheRocketmaneth TheRocketman.eth (@TheRocketmaneth) reported

    @sunnya97 AOL definitely had customer relationship part of equation down. They just got commoditized and obsoleted. Interesting to note best thing AOL ever had was its instant messenger. But it failed in the social media and mobile era. WhatsApp basically AIM mobile.

  • _Tenacious_G Universal Basic Good Vibes (@_Tenacious_G) reported

    @Ron_Fleasley Can't she even count ******* syllables or hear rythym in her own head?! She should never have been sent an AOL cd back in the day.

  • somecaboose Ⓒ Ⓐ Ⓑ Ⓞ Ⓞ Ⓢ Ⓔ (@somecaboose) reported

    @CheshireOcelot I always assumed that it was older people who still used AOL email addresses that would be the problem, and that future generations would generally do better. Maybe not by much it seems?

  • djrhetorik rhêtorík (@djrhetorik) reported

    What is a better alternative to Nord as a VPN? I am always getting the worlds worst connection, and whenever it decides it’s in the mood to connect, it’s at AOL trial disc speed What’s the best VPN?
